Asthma Allergy Centre

Allergy injection therapy offers a way to "turn off" allergies. After receiving monthly
desensitization injections for at least 3 years, patients have much fewer allergy symptoms
requiring none or much less medications. This effect persists for many years after stopping
the injections. This greatly improves the quality of life. Many patients prefer this treatment
instead of relying on daily medications for many years or decades.

Allergen Immunotherapy

Allergen immunotherapy is an allergy management and treatment option. This therapeutic treatment option involves administering small amounts of allergens to alter immunity so you are no longer very allergic to those specific allergens.

Food Allergy

At Asthma Allergy Centre, we are pleased to offer diagnostic testing and desensitization treatments for food allergies. Learn more during a consultation with our qualified staff at one of our locations in Beaverton, McMinnville, Newberg, or Tigard, Oregon.

Sinus Management

The majority of patients with recurrent sinus infections or chronic sinus problems also have nasal allergies as risk factors. Identifying these allergens would allow you to avoid or reduce the exposure. Allergen immunotherapy can also be used to reduce or eliminate this risk factor.

Eat the Foods You Love

Treatments tailored specifically to you.

We also offer "in-office" food challenges to determine whether a patient is allergic to a certain food when the history and current skin or laboratory tests suggest the patient may not be allergic to that specific food, or may no longer be allergic to that food if there was a history of allergic reaction.

Asthma Allergy Centre will open starting Monday April 6, 2020

In order to comply with the Governor’s order, and for the safety of our patients and staff we are implementing the following changes to the injection protocol and appointments. Please feel free to call us with any questions.

Safety precautions for allergy injections

Please wear a mask when coming into the office.

We have hand sanitizer available for use at the check-in area.

In order to comply with the social distancing order, please call before entering the office. You may have to wait to enter if there are other patients already in the office.

To avoid over-crowding in the waiting area, we will maintain social distance between patients. For those with low risk for a reaction, and that are accompanied by another adult, we are allowing patients to wait their 30 minutes in their vehicle.

In order to reduce over-crowding, it is recommended monthly maintenance patients wait for 6 weeks to return. Weekly build up patients should change to a 2 week build up schedule.

If you have travelled in the last two weeks, or been around anyone who has travelled in the last two weeks please postpone your injections.

If you have had ANY symptoms or been around anyone who has had any symptoms in the last two weeks, including but not limited to cough, fever, sore throat, or cold like symptoms, please postpone your injections.

Telemedicine offered with Zoom Video Meeting
There will be no face-to-face appointment at this time.

We will offer virtual office visits via Zoom. These may be accessed with any device with a camera, ie: computer, tablet, or smart phone. We will need your cell phone number and email address at the time of scheduling. (Other tools, such as FaceTime, or Skype may also be utilized if needed)

Allergy injection service locations and hours:
We will only be offering injections at two locations currently, Tigard and McMinnville. For now, Beaverton injections will be available at the Tigard location, and Newberg injections will be available at the McMinnville location. If you would prefer your injections transferred to one of the other two locations, please let our office know.
